When Chen Jie came under the big tree, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
"What's wrong?
team leader?"
Lisa looked at Chen Jie's stiff back, narrowed her eyes, raised her legs and walked towards Chen Jie's position.
"Don't come over here, there's a leopard up here."
Chen Jie lowered his voice, raised his head, and looked at Huabaozi.
One person and one leopard stared at each other, as if they were examining each other's fighting prowess.
When the three women heard this, they were shocked. They didn't expect that there would be such a dangerous animal on the tree. No wonder Miracle and Meatball screamed so crazy just now. It turned out that they were in danger.
"Captain, come here first, don't let it attack you, we can't beat you."
Lisa watched Chen Jie remain motionless for a long time, wanting Chen Jie to come back quickly.
Chen Jie stood there, still maintaining his original posture, motionless, as if he was competing with a leopard for endurance.
"team leader!"
Chen Yanyan shouted softly, thinking that Chen Jie didn't hear Lisa's words.
"Don't disturb the captain. He is in a very dangerous situation now. Let's be quiet."
Xiao Baihe reached out and patted Chen Yanyan on the shoulder, telling her not to panic.
"But there is a leopard in that tree. It's too dangerous."
Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Jie with a worried look on her face, anxious.
Chen Jie was in a stalemate with the leopard, while Miracle and Rouqiu came to Chen Jie's side, raised their heads, and barked at the leopard on the tree.
"Miracle, Meatball, stop barking."
Chen Jie stretched out his hand and put it on the heads of Miracle and Rouqiu. Looking at the frightened leopards in the tree, Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just an underage leopard, nothing to be afraid of.
Miracle and Rouqiu sat on the ground obediently, waiting beside Chen Jie.
Chen Jie waved to the leopard, and he heard the leopard roar, as if to warn Chen Jie not to come over.
"Because you are still underage, I will let you go today."
Chen Jie smiled, walked to the side with Miracle and Meatball, and kept a safe distance from the leopard.
The leopard was more wary and stared directly at Chen Jie, but did not come down from the tree because it felt it was safer in the tree.
"Captain, this is too dangerous, how dare you go there by yourself!"
Chen Yanyan reached out and grabbed Chen Jie's arm, and the stone hanging on her heart finally fell to the ground.
"Don't be afraid, it's just a child."
Chen Jie smiled and comforted the three girls. In fact, Chen Jie did not expect that it would be an underage leopard. When he saw the leopard's head just now, he thought it was an adult leopard, so he was frightened.
Cold sweat.
"Woof woof woof."
Miracle couldn't help but barked at the big tree a few more times, which frightened the leopard so much that it didn't dare to come down.
"Okay, Miracle, let it go, it's just a child, it looks smaller than a meat ball."
Chen Jie reached out and rubbed Miracle's head to calm Miracle's emotions.
Miracle whimpered a few times and sat down obediently, becoming very docile and no longer so irritable.
After a stalemate for almost five minutes, the leopard slowly walked down from the tree, looked at Chen Jie warily, and let out a few low growls from time to time, which was a bit bluffing.
Chen Jie just looked at the leopard indifferently. He felt that the leopard's skin was good and it would be better if it could be bigger.
When Huabaozi saw that Chen Jie was not coming towards him to attack him, he quickly jumped behind the big tree and ducked into the woods.
"Phew, fortunately it was a false alarm, this is too scary."
Chen Yanyan reached out and patted her chest/mouth to calm herself down.
"It turns out to be a little leopard. No wonder you were so calm just now."
Lisa rolled her eyes and glared at Chen Jie, which made them worry for a long time.
"Hey, I didn't get anything done today."
Chen Jie sighed, looking at the evening sun, he couldn't help but sigh.
"You two worked so hard yesterday, let's take a good rest today. In fact, it's not bad here. If you don't mind, it would be nice for us to live here."
Chen Yanyan said with an innocent face, very satisfied with the living conditions in front of her.
"It's really nice here, but it's too open and there are no caves. After all, the tent is not as safe as the cave. There is no water, so there is no way to live there for a long time."
Lisa mentioned the objective factors.
"Lisa is right, this is not a permanent place. We haven't washed ourselves for several days and we are all sticky."
Xiao Baihe twisted her body, feeling like a mud monkey.
Chen Jie smiled and looked at the three girls. He felt like there was a young girl growing up in our family.
"I am very happy that you have finally grown up."
Chen Jie said with a smile, feeling that they had all grown up without knowing it.
"Tch, stop pretending to be an uncle here and go chop wood for me."
Lisa glared at Chen Jie and handed the ax to Chen Jie directly, telling him to go to work and avoid taking advantage of them.
"Okay, I'll go chop wood for you right now."
Chen Jie deliberately spoke in a Beijing accent to make everyone happy.
Sure enough, the next second, the three girls burst into laughter.
Seeing that the atmosphere was lively, Chen Jie walked towards the woods with his legs up, intending to chop more firewood for the girls.
…
After dinner, the four of us gathered around the fire and started chatting about everyone's embarrassing anecdotes. For a while, it was so lively that everyone forgot their worries and worries.
"By the way, should we go over there and look for a place tomorrow?"
Xiao Baihe suddenly remembered that the direction he had seen before felt that it was not bad.
"It's up to you, just stay away from Wang Qiang and the others."
Chen Jie crossed his hands and put them behind his head, admiring the stars in the sky.
The three girls looked at Chen Jie's lazy look and also lay down. The four of them lay on the ground, admiring the beautiful scenery in the night sky, which had a unique flavor.
"Captain, thank you."
Xiao Baihe said it unconsciously, and the scene of Chen Jie carrying her on his back could always appear in her mind. She would never forget this moment.
"What are you saying thank you for?
Don't be scary at night, okay?"
Chen Jie knew the meaning of Xiao Baihe's words and quickly changed the topic.
Xiao Baihe smiled and said nothing, but she was filled with gratitude towards Chen Jie.
As long as Chen Jie just says a word, she can even risk her life.
"What riddles are you two playing?
Why can’t I understand?”
Chen Yanyan asked curiously from the side, always feeling that Chen Jie and Xiao Baihe were mysterious.
"Nothing, we are studying ghost stories, do you want to listen, Yanyan!"
Chen Jie knew that Chen Yanyan was most afraid of these things, so he deliberately mentioned them in order to divert Chen Yanyan's attention.
"Oh, I hate Captain, you don't have any ghost stories to tell, it makes me so nervous now."
